Team Shelby Club
2019 Team Shelby Membership Kit
Please note that membership contents are subject to change.
Team Shelby was designed and engineered by real enthusiasts inside and out of Shelby.
Team Shelby was originally formed in 2008 by Carroll Shelby. He wanted to create a club for people to truly enjoy their cars. He knew the world had changed, and he wanted his companies to meet the needs of the new generation of Shelby owners. His vision was to knit together those people with the owners of early Shelby's and give everyone fun new ways to experience their high performance vehicles.
Mr. Shelby imagined a place where owners could talk about their latest conquests at the track, swap stories, share photos and learn new ways to hot rod their cars! He wanted to link all of the enthusiasts into one "dream garage"... thus, Team Shelby was born!
Team Shelby has many free, open access forums, news sections and member only areas dedicated to the community.
In addition, Team Shelby has a full series of events for 2019, which include VIP Experiences, track days, National & Regional gatherings, cruises, car shows and more! Ownership of a Shelby is not required to be a member. The club is dedicated to serving all Shelby enthusiasts past and present including those that own cars built in the 1960's and Shelby Dodges too! Carroll Shelby (Team Shelby Member #001) said: "We built Team Shelby for anyone who is passionate about Shelby cars! We’ll have a blast and we'll do it the Shelby way!

I checked with our parts department and they are out of stock on the Hertz fender badges. There is a chance they may be able to get more of the made but it all depends on what the contract between Hertz and Shelby American spells out, after-all Hertz owns the rights to their name as used on these fender badges.
Hopefully they will have an answer to this in the near future.

Don,
Its kind of like the chicken vs the egg thing, which came first. Did enthusiasts start throwing the 'R' name around and PR guys picked it up or did the PR guys toss the 'R' name out there and the enthusiasts picked it up.
All I know that there was no 'R' model option check box on the order sheet, there is no 'R' model insignia anywhere on the car and so far I've not seen one sales invoice showing where an owner purchased a 'R' model.
This is the same as some 40th Anniversary owners claiming to have a 40th Anniversary car with the Super Snake option. Never happened no matter how many times they say it.

What's up Lobby. Greetings from the great frozen mid-west. I love snow storms that blow the snow off my driveway so I don't have to push it around. But it left a 3' drift just in front of the front door, so I had to push it off the steps. Been watching Laika run around the backyard. Sometimes he jumps over the drifts, sometimes he walks thru them and stands in them. And even with single digit temps last night, he was still outside and just sitting on the porch looking around. He doesn't care, he's a Husky.

I am a newer Team Shelby member and the chairperson of the Norther Star National Mustang Show that is being held in Bloomington, MN June 28-30, 2019. The show is being co-hosted by the Upper Midwest Region Shelby American Automobile Club and the Southwest Metro Mustang Club. I am working to get the word out about our MCA national show. We have 128 cars registered so far with folks coming from 28 states. The show field should hold 400 to 450 cars. We have a variety of activities planned in addition to the car show itself and plan to highlight the 1969 Mustangs as 2019 is the 50th anniversary of both the Boss and Mach 1 marquise. We have arranged for a $75 discount for the BIR Performance Driving School on July 1st for show participants. We would love to have Team Shelby show up in force. Check out all the show details at www.northrnstarnationalmustangshow.com

I have been in contact with a dealer waiting for the final custom front fascia parts on the coupes. I would like to think the convert’s are close to being built & delivered in early February. I really want to see a production car done.

Mongoose found this 08 SGT today at a flea market in Saint Augustine. Well actually Bonnie found it. No box but these are hard to find. $20 and in great condition. I’ve always loved this color on the SGT. My favorite of all SGT’s. It’s your car right ?
Bailey likes it also and approves. 👍🏻 Looks good on the mantle above the fireplace.

How many miles on each of these cars?
2011’s don’t have a ton of demand, so it’s something to consider. You might be able to do a bit better than $36k (depending on mileage)
I’m sure you found the interior of the 2011 is much improved over the 2007.

I’m only considering Shelby’s. 2007 GT/CS and 2011 GT500. Both around 12k miles. $30k for the GT/SC and $36k for GT500. The GT500 has some other goodies like gps and dual climate control. Both great condition. Sorry I did not clarify this earlier as I’ve narrowed my search through test drives.

Are talking about a regular GT/SC or a Shelby GT/SC, if you are talking a Regular GT with a Supercharger you should be looking to spend less then or around $20K in my opinion. If you are talking a Shelby GT/SC or a GT500 you will be looking at around $30K or so. If your budget is low 20's I would go regular GT, any GT500 or Shelby GT/SC close to that price range is more then likely not going to be pretty. If your budget is around $30K then it becomes a more difficult decision. The Shelby GT will handle better stock, the GT500 will be a better highway cruiser stock. Both I think will hold their value fairly well if you make a smart purchase and take care of them. A regular GT with Supercharger I do not think will hold its value, it will be very difficult to sell IMO.
Good luck, there are a few on this forum for sale, most all of us take great care of our cars, I personally would pay extra buying from an enthusiast.

I know that the 2011 is a much different car. Its why I stated that I had only driven the 2008. 2BJShelbys also gave you an excellent opinion of the GT/SC and its handling. I don't know him personally but he has been a long time member here and is typically a no BS guy, his car opinions are usually spot on, and from his past posts he has excellent firsthand knowledge of a pretty wide array of Shelby Vehicles and Shelby Driving knowledge. The decision is yours to make. You mentioned earlier that you were looking at an automatic which is why I gave you the input on the automatic vs manual. The SGT and GT/SC both make excellent daily drivers and are an excellent choice for people who like spirited driving. Be sure to do your research on all the shifter and clutch issues with the manuals. There are topics you can search within Team Shelby about them. If you want to row gears then go for it. Good Luck.

Per the original design goals, the Shelby GT will be a better handling car, and the GT500 will be a better straight line car.
Mine was a GT/SC with an automatic and I stated at the time that the GT auto transmission was about as perfect as it could be. I had two identical cars and the auto shifted EXACTLY where I shifted the manual, but did it much more predictably and faster. The one time I drag raced (first and only) I think I did somewhere around 13 (just a little over) and since it was a convertible they told me if I went under 13 I'd have to leave. I never got better since my first run was one of the first runs of the day so the starting area was clear and the tires got really good grip but after that started to get squirrelly and almost sent me into the wall. I didn't run any more after that.
